"Education minister Gavin Williamson could be the next MP of the Year despite begin leading the A-Levels debacle which saw almost 40% of student results downgraded a grade or more by a controversial computer algorithm."
🤣🤣🤣🤣
"...the award being run by Patchwork, an organisation campaigning for greater engagement of teens from BAME and minority communities in parliament."
Surely engagement of teens is not to be driven, under duress and under threat of losing their life chances!?!
“Patchwork and KPMG are both completely tone deaf to press ahead with this. Shows contempt for all the young people caught up in the chaos of exam results,” Best for Britain chief executive Naomi Smith wrote.
BLIND & DEAF to the many "burning injustices" arising from Tory Rule!
I wonder if these responses from young students might satisfy the aim of "Patchwork, an organisation campaigning for greater engagement of teens from BAME and minority communities in parliament."
Perhaps not, and neither should #Williamson be rewarded for his dismal performance!
@weegingerdug The future outcome of #COVID19 pandemic was pre-determined by the actions of politicians in the years preceding #COVID19.
Little could have been done that would have saved the lives of all that have been lost. ❤️
@weegingerdug Yet, reports of successes around the world - in containment, testing and tracing - could have been taken onboard if not, simply copied in order to lessen the economic and human losses.
So, our politicians complained of their perceived loss of freedoms and of government control!
@weegingerdug Let us not forget how it was reported that #Johnson sought to prioritise PPE supplies for England before Scotland, Wales and NI.
#GE2024 is but one election albeit an important one.
This is NOT the end of a 'tale' BUT merely, the beginning of a new chapter in a neverending journey ... made in Scotland, by the people of Scotland, for Scotland!
Come ONE, Come ALL!

@UnrollHelper "Liz Truss’s and Kwasi Kwarteng’s 2012 free-market treatise Britannia Unchained has shot up the sales charts, hitting the top spot on Amazon rankings for books on “economic conditions”. It costs £19.55 for the paperback."
@UnrollHelper Ought to come with a health warning for the nation's economy!
@UnrollHelper “The key is to make sure that failure is survivable,” is one of the book’s insights. “In the early stages of a project, failure need not be a disaster.”
"This is likely to provide scant consolation to Tory MPs facing the threat of losing their seats at the next election."
"The ecological destruction Liz Truss plans to unleash on this country is not collateral damage. It is not a byproduct of her economic programme. It’s a mark of true faith, a sign that she is following her ideology to the letter."
"For fundamental to this doctrine – neoliberalism – is the belief that everything on Earth can and should be turned into something else."
"Rather than seeking to protect the soil – the delicate ecosystem from which 99% of our calories are produced – Hayek says it makes sense to extract as much value as it can produce, exhaust it “once and for all”, then abandon the land."
